Hi you, missed your comments. Guess you been tied up with stuff and such? this will pass, this isn't the end; not quite ready yet.

With computers, the only language is English. Thank gawd - this is good for me - cause I am useless at languages! Hey I slept last week LOL why rush things? I am off to bed soon. I have a real busy couple of days ahead!

Peace

While I DO appreciate the sentiment; I'd also appreciate f'ing or freaking or even f***ing; as my young kids watch these to keep track of their wayward father :)

Peace

Hi. Thought you might like to know that in the last couple of days the BBC has been uttering the word 'SLUMP'. I imagine that come Monday the senior editorial staff will have been dealt with by The Brown Regime's heavies.

[FeverIAm]

Oh no - using words not 'approved' by number 10. Will then ever learn? LOL So is slump worse than the R word? or not as bad as the D word?

Any week there isn't much in the FT is a week we can all breathe a sigh of relief!

The Chinese supposedly have a curse: "May you live in interesting times."

We could all do with a boring, uneventful week or two - no bank and corporate failures, no stock market crashes etc. ;- )
